Shab-E-Baraat Observed Across Kashmir


(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) Srinagar- The Shab-e-Baraat (night of forgiveness) prayers were held at mosques and shrines across the Kashmir valley on Tuesday night with traditional fervour and devotion, officials said.

However, there were no night-long prayers at Jama Masjid, the historic mosque at Nowhatta here, after authorities closed the mosque and placed Mirwaiz Umar Farooq under house arrest.
